Twilight Sparkle catches an unknown illness after a trip to the Zebra homeland with Zecora, and ends up hospitalized while she awaits a cure.
With the doctors lacking a diagnosis, and her future looking grim, she relies on those she loves for support.
Note: This is not meant to insult/express my views on religion or Atheism. It was just something I wanted to write after re-watching Celestia's ballad sometime in May.

I hope you handle tbis touchy subject well.
6303681 Well I certainly put more effort into this than any other story I've posted here thus far, particularly the only other one currently on my page.
This is indeed a touchy subject, and it needed to be handled with the utmost care. Basically, it's the one story that mattered enough for me to go back and re-read and revise over and over again, until I was happy that it read clearly and that I didn't go out and offend half of the internet.
Worst-case scenario would (hopefully) just be a few minor typos I happened to miss.
Love the story. It really makes you think about the different possibiites there could be after death and it shows you what a great relationship Spike and Twilight have with each other. I hope you made a sequel showing the other's reaction to Twilghts death and her visiting there dreams but that probably won't happen. Either way I love your story and hope you continue writing.
6943527 Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I haven't considered a sequel before, but your suggestion is giving me a few ideas. If I do get around to writing one, I'll be sure to credit you as inspiration.
